Hi, I'm ЗAНИA. ЗAНИA means nothing. It's basically the name Xania (which also means nothing) written in Serbian Cyrillic script.

I am a former IT technician and linguistic specialist with experience teaching the English language in a variety of countries and to a wide range of age groups and student type. Presently, I am living and working in Tallinn, Estonia.

The most important work ЗAНИA is doing at the moment is on the English Wikibook. ЗAНИA is reorganizing this Wikibook to provide easy access to parts about grammar, parts directed to students of English as a foreign language, parts intended for teachers of English and parts for Business English. ЗAНИA created a book called English for B2 students which is a course book intended for Upper Intermediate students of English as a Foreign Language. This book will include themed units, tests, a variety of listening and reading and better visuals than current English coursebooks available on Wikibooks. Any help is appreciated.

One other task ЗAНИA is doing at the moment involves metricating all recipes because at present these recipes are absolutely useless to anyone outside of the USA, in ЗAНИA'S opinion. Feel free to help out by converting unmetric recipes - just visit the link below and make sure you add it to the metric category when you're finished.

Some Wikibooks that ЗAНИA is currently working on:

English - ЗAНИA has rearranged the previous English Wikibooks into one big book for easier access.
English for B2 Students - This book is intended for Upper Intermediate students.
English in use - This book was previously known as "English" and is a Wikibook resource for English grammar and vocabulary.
English_as_an_Additional_Language - This is an older book for those learning English as a Foreign Language. In ЗAНИA'S opinion this book is more suitable for lower levels of language learners and needs a lot of work.

Languages

ЗAНИA is actively researching and learning languages. ЗAНИA is not an expert in any particular language but I teach and help with research for the English language. ЗAНИA has studied French, Spanish, Polish and Russian in the past and at the moment is learning (when ЗAНИA has time) Italian, Slovenian, Manx Gaelic and little chunks of Catalan, Euskara (Basque), Serbian and მომხმარებელი (Georgian). ЗAНИA will try to help if anyone has queries regarding these languages.

My Basic 'Policies' on Wikibooks

ЗAНИA reverts vandalism on sight and will only ever give vandals one warning. If you vandalise (or blank or add nonsense or misleading information) more than once, add racist language (even just once) or anything offensive or obviously disruptive then ЗAНИA will block you without warning. ЗAНИA has no tolerance whatsoever for racists, right-wingers or those wishing to cause offence.
